A software package for camera-assisted motion control of PIC chip interrogation platforms.
Project description
Autogator
The Automatic Chip Interrogator, by Sequoia Ploeg (BYU CamachoLab).
A software package for camera-assisted motion control and experiment configuration of photonic integrated circuit interrogation platforms.
Installation
This package is cross-platform and can be installed on any operating system.
AutoGator is a client with algorithms for interacting with instruments controlled by other softwares. It typically communicates with hardware using socket connections.
It is recommended to use a virtual environment when installing Autogator. To recreate the development environment, after manually installing the above packages, run:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Dev Notes
Possible algorithm for calibrating the stage
- Home the stages
- Open up a controller to move the stage to some beginning position with some item on the screen
- Make sure the zoom is set to 1x, or know what the zoom level is
- Move the controller some distance in x, whether in the controller or predefined
- Click where the object has moved to
- Move the controller some distance in y, whether in the controller or predefined
- Click where the object has moved to
- Calculate the number of pixels and equate it to some physical distance
